5. Good if it makes every official aware of not to break the law.

8. I didn't hear anything, but I'm assuming that visiting brothels is not
 something Gov. Spitzer started doing recently. Could be that the FBI made investigating the escort service as a cover for spying on the Governor.

Maybe this info is several years old and the repuke admin needed Gov. Spitzer to do something uncharacteristic and they used this info as leverage.

I just feel that we ALL should be asking a lot more questions like this..........

Not that congress will get us any answers, cause they are being blackmailed, too!

14. Somebody high up in the admin tried to use info
 to entice Spitzer to do something. "Or, we may leak info and pictures to the Times/Post/Enquirer - whatever, that you frequent this service.

Spitzer manned up, said "F *ck you!" and confesses to his bad behavior in public, leaving his potential blackmailers without any weapons.

His blackmailers are $hitting themselves this instant, trying to figure out how deny that they were involved!

15. Where in the world are you getting this theory?
 Do you have anything at all to substantiate what you're saying?

 Or maybe to run a shipload of rebels past the Imperial blockade in under 12 parsecs

Any DUchebag remember the 500 FBI files the clintons had illegally?

No didn't think so.

One there is absolute proof that the democrats broke the law.  The othere there is pure fantasy that Bush broke the law.

Ok, if he is man enough to call the blackmailers bluff then he should definitely be man enough to tell what the blackmailers wanted and who they are ...

These DUchebags are really missing their meds.  The Feds have text messages and phone calls of Spitzer arranging to meet with "Kristen," one of the women "employed" by the service.  Multiple calls/texts, with each one carrying a 5-year prison term.

If someone is so rotten and corrupt they can be blackmailed, do the DUmmies really want them to stay in their positions?  I mean, really!  At one point the DUmmies were saying * was blackmailing every democrat in congress.  Would this not mean that EVERY democrat member of congress was guilty of something? 

Blackmail is a crime, for sure, but it is any worse than what the "victim" is trying to hide?  That is the question.  The DUmmies never think these things through.

Entrapment, it is all entrapment.  Just like DU forming made TiT come in and lie his ass off.  He wouldn't have normally done that but he couldn't help himself.

Bingo.

Also, it is the wire transfer of money from Spitzer's bank accounts to the accounts of the escort service that they've got him for.  The texts and phone callks merely reinforce the wire transfer.

Don't you know?  When they wanted him to come in, TiT just kept a sniper scope on the Assistant Director of the CIA and said "she's standing next to you."

Looks like MrCoffee is headed for MrGranite.  Such rationality is an affront to the very principles of DU.  "Principles" being kind of a relative term in this context....

so, if i catch you lying on the phone, or misusing state funds, or making a date with a prostitute under federal surveillance, I am also to blame for catching you?

in what universe would that ever be rational?
